The weather is storming,
And fires are warming,
The cauldrons to boil.
Wild winds drive rain,
And unknown howls,
Drive fear through your brain.
The Season of the Witch,
Is upon us,
And visions of ghouls haunt us,
As children chant their refrain.
TRICK OR TREAT?
Your choice, you spin,
Just get your ballot in by next Tuesday.
And remember that even on TWISoween,
We’ve got good science for you,
Here on This Week In Science
Some quick science news!
In The Mirror
Is chemistry finally stepping inside the mirror on the way to figuring out how biological self-replication started?
Awakening The Hidden
Is pregnancy a trigger for restructuring?
Why Clowns?
Why is it always clowns?
